Elders Wagstaff, Thinh (going back to Vietnam), VanLoo, and Ross walked the Red Carpet the morning of the 18th of December. Three heading back to the USA and one to Vietnam. The USA Elders flew, of course, and Elder Thinh went on the bus to Ho Chi Minh.
Our final pictures with these three outstanding Elders. They all three worked hard and had been leaders at one time or another in the mission. Elder Ross had also been an assistant. He was released two transfers early in order to help build the missionary work in the 9th branch. He and his companion had great success and have established a good foundation for others going to that branch. Thanks to all three of you for outstanding work and spirituality!
Elder Ross has on his Dad's suit that he wore on his mission. As you can see by the looks of the jacket, it needs a little repairing as the lining is loose. He wears this suit with pride and honor, knowing that his father wore it with the same characteristics. What a tradition!
These three young women, from the 12th branch came to say good bye and just missed the missionaries. They did get to see and wave to them as they went up the elevator.
